whitewashed

from the bell hooks fan page on facebook:

““white supremacy” is a much more useful term for understanding the complicity of people of color in upholding and maintaining racial hierarchies that do not involve force (i.e slavery, apartheid) than the term “internalized racism”- a term most often used to suggest that black people have absorbed negative feelings and attitudes about blackness. The term “white supremacy” enables us to recognize not only that black people are socialized to embody the values and attitudes of white supremacy, but we can exercise “white supremacist control” over other black people.”
― Bell Hooks, Talking Back: Thinking Feminist, Thinking Black

This is a great documentary for white people to watch and if you have any white friends please pass it on to them. This documentary is called ‘Whitewashed, Unmasking the World of Whiteness’ its about white privilege ….because I know that it is hard for some to see it.
